This one is from 1967, Elm Hall maybe? The bow looks like my Wilson Brothers Black Widow.

Look at that golden pompadour, I must have had some good stuff to keep it in place in the wind.

Anyone else got any oldies to share?

I was still 20 years from being born. Sorry wish I could help. Nice picture though.

This is me with my first bow and arrow kill.
I think it was 1963

I'm just the opposite. Started righty ( still shoot and can) but switched to lefty.

Fun stuff Ron.   I've been hunting almost 45 years.   It's entertaining to go back and look at some of my old pictures.

BTW....Do you still have that beautiful Randall model 19 that I've been trying to buy off you for the past 20 years??   Lol...

This is our team that won the Central Michigan Archery Championship. I think the year was 1962 the first year Bear Archery came out with the Bear Tamerlane, that's me on the right with my Tamerlane.
